"The victim only spent a day in Nunukan. He was being forced to give some money to a group of people but refused. Then someone from the group pulled out a knife and had a one-on-one fight with him,'' he said.

The police chief said the alleged killer, a man named Basri bin Ismail, had been arrested.

Ismail.

Isn’t that the same name of the wild ass, donkey of a man?

I don’t know why any westerner would want to visit Indonesia (except perhaps Bali, much less a Dutch one.

That explains his natural instinct to murder others.

The temple at Borobudur is pretty interesting, too. If you think being a westerner is difficult, try being a Christian ethnic Chinese in Indonesia. The civil war of the 1960’s allowed Muslims to kill hundreds of thousands of ethnic Chinese on the pretext that all ethnic Chinese were Communists or money-grubbers akin to the Jews. I have no idea why my relatives decided to stay there but apparently business has been very good to them despite being fraught with danger (the currency scare in the late Nineties had them fleeing to Singapore). They now own the largest sugar plantation and refinery in Indonesia.

Isn't that called "robbery"? Why don't they just say that a gang of muslims were robbing the tourist and killed him when he refused? Perhaps that might paint them as "criminals"? Can't have that.

The Dutch used to own Indonesia, probably still have many business interests there.

“a group of people”
sounds like a bunch of savage throwbacks to me.

Thats why their well-hated in that region. I understand the allies used the Japanese to police the place for awhile after the war, the locals hated the dutch so much.

Actually, the guy saw the great need in the gang members lives and tried to give them money. The gang refused to take the money. And finally someone in the gang had to stab him, because of his forceful insistance they take his money.
